Eggs ‘n Things just opened its Ko Olina location in June, but is already changing things up. A dinner menu launched Monday, along with several new breakfast items.

Dinner items include garlic shrimp ($14), chicken cutlet ($13), ahi salad (market price) and several burgers ($13-$14).

The restaurant is in the Ko Olina Center and Station, 92-1047 Olani St., in the former Yuzu Sushi location. Hours are 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 4 to 10 p.m. daily. Call 312-3447.

It is the fourth Oahu location for Eggs ‘n Things. The chain also has a restaurant on Guam, plus franchise operations in Japan, Singapore and Taiwan.
